Dark Slayer Style

The Dark Slayer Style is Vergil's personal style in Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition, and one of Dante's styles in Devil May Cry 4. As a warrior fallen from grace, Vergil can use the power of darkness to obtain new weapons and skills by leveling the style. The style itself performs much like Dante's Trickster Style.

In Devil May Cry 4, Dante obtains this style after receiving Yamato, but instead of being based on teleportation, it allows Dante to replicate a few of Vergil's skills with the Yamato.

Trivia

 * When Dante enters the Dark Slayer Style, he appears to do a motion of flipping his hair back, most likely as a nod towards Vergil's tendency to perform a similar action throughout Devil May Cry 3.
 * When Dante is using the Dark Slayer Style, after he attacks using Yamato, it will disappear in a puff of blue smoke. Dante also mimics Vergil's war cry when he uses Yamato.
 * When Dante enters the Dark Slayer Style, it is signaled by a purple color, mostly as a reference to the blue and red mix.
 * The Dark Slayer Style is the only style in Devil May Cry 4 which cannot be upgraded.
